Abstract
Introduction: Research on multi-actor approaches in cultural contexts has become increasingly important as attention to collaborative governance, heritage management, tourism, and sustainable territorial development continues to grow. However, the literature on this topic remains dispersed across different fields and has not been widely mapped in a systematic manner. This study aims to examine the development of scholarly publications on multi-actor approaches in culture.

Method: This study employed a bibliometric approach with a PRISMA-style identification and screening process. Data were retrieved from the Scopus database and limited to 52 journal articles published between 2013 and 2026. The analysis was conducted using RStudio to identify publication trends, source productivity, citation performance, authorship structure, and keyword occurrence.

Results: The findings show that this topic has experienced considerable growth, with an annual growth rate of 13.18%. The literature is distributed across 44 different sources, indicating its interdisciplinary character. The authorship structure is collaborative, with an average of 3.52 authors per article. Keyword analysis identifies stakeholder as the central theme, closely associated with decision making, sustainable development, governance approach, and co-creation.

Conclusions: These findings confirm that multi-actor approaches have become an important perspective for understanding cultural governance. The novelty of this article lies in offering a bibliometric mapping specifically focused on cultural contexts, while also providing direction for future research and practice that is more comparative, critical, integrated, and participatory.

Abstract
Introduction: The objective of this study is to analyze the role of the General Election Supervisory Agency (BAWASLU) in realizing election justice within the framework of legal philosophy, examining various dynamics of electoral legal issues in Indonesia, including vote-buying and violations of civil servant neutrality

Method: This study employs a normative legal method using a legislative and theoretical approach, through a literature review

Results: The research findings reveal that although BAWASLU has undergone a transformation of its authority to adjudicate election violations under Law No. 7 of 2017, the effectiveness of election law enforcement still faces serious obstacles, including time constraints in handling cases, evidentiary standards, and overlapping authority with other institutions such as the General Election Commission (KPU), the Police, and the Prosecutor’s Office.

Conclusions: The transition of BAWASLU’s oversight functions toward a more autonomous adjudicative role indicates progress toward fairer elections. Accordingly, this study recommends regulatory reform to align BAWASLU’s authority with that of other judicial institutions, thereby preventing overlapping jurisdictions. The Government and the House of Representatives should also strengthen the enforceability of BAWASLU decisions to promote legal certainty and uphold electoral justice
